Description

A flavorful and creamy chicken curry dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 (28 oz) can whole tomatoes
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk)
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add remaining butter, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the skillet; sauté until fragrant (1-2 minutes). Then add crushed tomatoes.
  4. Stir in cumin, coriander, garam masala, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes before gradually stirring in heavy cream until well combined.
  5. Return the seared chicken to the skillet and simmer for another 15 minutes to absorb flavors.
  6. Serve hot over rice or with warm naan, garnished with fresh cilantro.

Notes

  • This dish can also be made with coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro for added flavor.
